Coming from Firefox I really liked when you could right click on an element and hit Q key to open up Inspector with the element highlighted.
On Windows it was always visible, hence the (Q):

On Macs it wasn't, but it worked up until when Firefox recently decided to change their context menu behavior from a custom one to a native one. If you would like to try it out you can open up about:config and set widget.macos.native-context-menus value to false in Firefox.
It would be really great if Orion could have this feature with an ability to customize the shortcut key, but a predefined one (like Q in Firefox) would also work.

    mantas Inspect element in Orion already has a keyboard shortcut (shift cmd C) and like any other Orion menu shortcut, you can change it to anything you like using macOS settings. Does that work for you?

        Vlad it does, I would just need to adjust my muscle memory it. But if this feature is possible I think it would be a nice one for people coming from Firefox (mostly web devs I guess)

            mantas It is striking a balance. Our number one goal is staying native, and teaching users to use native OS functionality whenever they can. You can easilly remap this to any shortcut and you will not even need to right click again. Muscle memory is a thing, but not imperative as users coming from other browsers will have different often conflicting muscle memory. SO going full native is the only solution.
